Can I run Apple TV on a Mac Mini?

Can i run Apple TV through a computer?

No. Not sure of the application you're trying to achieve, ATV is a media streaming set top box that connects to an HDTV.

  • Can i run two monitors on a mac mini?

    I'm wondering if I can run a 5 year old cinema display and a cheap flat screen monitor on a mac mini. Someone at Apple said yes but someone at a Mac store said no.

    OK, I am a musician also and I just purchased a Mac Mini (late 2010 version).  So I can tell you with out a doubt that it has support for 2 monitors of any kind.  If your cinema display has the Apple ADC connector it is going to be tough. Some people use the displayport to dvi adaptor connected to a DVI to ADC adaptor and plug and claim to have it working. I have NO IDEA how it would.
    The MINI comes with this adaptor:

  • Can't run iMovie 08 on my mac mini

    I bought a mac mini OS X 10.4.11 recently (1.42 GHz PowerPC G4, 1GB, Intel processor, PowerMac 10.1, 167 MHz). I tried to load iMovie 08 but couldn't as I need 2GHz or a G5. Is it possible to upgrade this mac mini so I can run iMovie 08? Don't have alot of money to spend on a new Mac, so was hoping to upgrade. If so, how do I do this. Thanks.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Unfortunately, there is no practical way to upgrade a 1.42 G4 Mac mini to a specification sufficient to run iMovie 8 since iMovie 8 requires an Intel processor, or a G5 system running at least 1.9GHz.
    However, if you have tried to install iLife 08, you can download iMovie HD (the previous version of iMovie) which will install and run on that system. When you try and install the earlier iMovie after installing other iLife 08 components, it should search the system for a qualifying product and find sufficient of the iLife 08 software to install and run.
    iMovie HD is a little more complex and sophisticated than iMovie 08, but many users significantly prefer it.
    Oops, forgot: the iMovie HD download can be found at http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/imovieHD6.html

  • Can I use backup from iMac on Mac mini?

    My iMac just went into the Apple Store shop today for a new disk drive. I have a cloned backup of it from Super Duper, on an external drive. Is there any way I can boot from that drive on my Mac mini? Thanks.

    As long as the version of Mac OS X on the backup drive is the same or newer than what came from the factory installed on the mini it should boot fine.

  • I used to sync my ipad on an asus laptop, now I have a Mac mini and want to sync with it. Can I? Can things be transferred from laptop to Mac mini?

    I synced my ipad2 with an asus laptop. Now I have a Mac mini that I want to use for syncing and backup. But when I connected my ipad to the Mac mini it said something about the ipad being already synced to another computer and backup is permitted only one computer at a time. How can I transfer my backup to the Mac mini ? And delete my previous (I.e. asus laptop) iTunes backup system?

    You don't have to delete anything from the Asus. You can copy your iTunes library from the laptop to the Mac. Read this for more information.

  • Can I install more memory on a mac mini

    Can I install more memory on a mac mini?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Of course. You can upgrade the RAM always that you do not have a Late 2014 Mac mini (I am not sure that you can install more RAM, and if you can, it will void the warranty), and you can purchase more RAM at OWC or Crucial.

  • Can i connect my iMac to a mac mini (wirelessly) and control the mac mini display on my TV?

    Can i connect my iMac to a mac mini (wirelessly) and control the mac mini display on my TV?

    Look up "screen sharing" in help
    You can control your mini (which I am assuming you are hooking to your TV) complete from your iMac.
    After you set up screen sharing, you can go to the finder, under the "go" menu choose "Connect to server" and then browse.  Choose your mac mini's name, and look for the "Screen Sharing" button.
    Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, and then click Sharing.
    Select the Screen Sharing checkbox.
    To specify who can share your screen, select one of the following:
    All users:
    Select this if you want to allow any user with a user account on your computer to share your screen.
    Only these users:
    Select this if you want to restrict screen sharing to specific users.Click Add at the bottom of the Users list and select a user from Users & Groups (accounts you have set up in Users & Groups preferences), Network Users (users on your network), or your Address Book. Or click New Person and enter a name and password to create a sharing account. Then select that user from the list, and then click Select.
    Click Computer Settings and set the following options:
    Anyone may request permission to control screen:
    Select this to allow anyone on your network to request to share your screen.
    VNC viewers may control screen with password:
    Select this and enter a password that VNC viewer applications can enter in order to control your screen.It’s recommended that you not set a password if you only share this computer’s screen using the built-in screen sharing viewer in Mac OS X.
